El día de los trífidos

"If you know that it is Wednesday and the morning begins as if it were a Sunday, something very serious must be happening somewhere." In this innocuous way begins one of the most famous novels of catastrophes. The day after a meteor shower hits England, Bill Masen is one of the lucky few to keep his sight. London is full of men and women who wander for help and in some cases try to enslave those who can still see. But in this post-apocalyptic world they have to survive another threat: triffids, carnivorous plants over two meters tall, that can move and that possess lethal stingers. Do human beings have a chance against such an enemy?
